Rahul pens letter to people of Wayanad, says their love protected him

Gandhi said that when he faced abuse on a daily basis, the unconditional love of the people of Wayanad protected him.

“I was a stranger to you and yet you believed in me. You embraced me with unbridled love and affection. It didn't matter which political formation you supported, it didn't matter which community you were from or which religion you believed in or which language you spoke,” Gandhi wrote in the letter.

"When I faced abuse day after day, your unconditional love protected me. You were my refuge, my home and my family. I never felt for even a moment that you doubted me," he added.
